Hey all, my name is Kiki. I live in the U.S. Virgin Islands on the island of St. Croix. I am a mother to 3 year old twin boys. In the past 4 years, I have put on a few pounds. NO, WAIT, SCRATCH THAT, I have gained A LOT of weight. The last time I've actually been happy with my weight was back in 2005. That's 7 years ago. I had gained weight by then but I was pretty much happy with my size. Well, we're in 2012 and I am ready to take it all off. I've tried SP before and quit; I've done ...

Hey all, my name is Kiki. I live in the U.S. Virgin Islands on the island of St. Croix. I am a mother to 3 year old twin boys. In the past 4 years, I have put on a few pounds. NO, WAIT, SCRATCH THAT, I have gained A LOT of weight. The last time I've actually been happy with my weight was back in 2005. That's 7 years ago. I had gained weight by then but I was pretty much happy with my size. Well, we're in 2012 and I am ready to take it all off. I've tried SP before and quit; I've done many other weight loss programs and I'm just tired of starting and giving up. I am even more tired and angry at myself for all the money I have wasted over the the years in weight loss programs, diet pills and shakes, etc. I liked SP the last time I tried it out, mainly for the motivation I received from SparkPages and Message board posts. I am now back and ready to be serious. My weight loss goal is 50-60 pounds total; however, I have decided to start small and begin by losing 10 pounds first. Wish me luck guys :-)

My Goals:
My goals are to lose weight and be healthy for myself and for my kids. I want to be more active with them. I want to be more confident.

My Program:
I wanted to start exercising 3x a week- cardio and strength training; instead I am trying to do it 5x times a week at 15 minutes per workout. I'll see how it goes with that and switch up if I have to. I plan to drink lots of water and eat lots of fruits- something that I have not done in a long time.

Personal Information:
I was born and live on the beautiful island of St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. I am 26 years old and about to be 27 on March 18, 2012. I realize that it's time to turn my life around and be healthy for me and my family.
